Kuda Node.js Library

NodeJS wrapper for making secure request to Kuda API

Getting started

  • paste your private and public key (both in XML format) in your project directory
  • Your client key is the name of your private key file

Using the library

run npm install kuda-node

Library setup

const fs = require("fs");
const Kuda = require('kuda-node'); 

const publicKey = fs.readFileSync("./kuda.public.xml"); // or path to your kuda public key
const privateKey = fs.readFileSync("./path-to-private-key.xml"); // or path to your kuda kuda private key
const clientKey = "name-of-private-key-file"; // name of private key file without the .xml suffix (extension)

const kuda = Kuda({
  publicKey,
  privateKey,
  clientKey
}); // this initialize the Kuda function

Making a request

kuda({
  serviceType: "SERVICE_TYPE",
  requestRef: "requestReference",
  data: {
    param: value
  }
});

Sample request

// account creation
const shortid = require("shortid"); // this libarary will generate random id for you. You can install with `yarn add shortid` or `npm i shortid`. You can use any other random key generatring library of your choice

kuda(
  {
    serviceType: "CREATE_VIRTUAL_ACCOUNT",
    requestRef: Math.floor(Math.random() * 1000000000000 + 1), // you can generate your random number your own way. This is just an example.
    data: {
      email: "ajala@obi.com",
      phoneNumber: "08012345678",
      firstName: "Ajala",
      lastName: "Obi",
      trackingReference: "vAcc-" + shortid.generate() // you can generate your trackingReference some other way you choose.
    }
  },
  data => {
    // data => decrypted response from Kuda API
    // do anything with your data
    console.log(JSON.stringify(data, null, 2));
  }
);

// it can also be called with in an async await fashion like so
const onboardUser = async(email, phoneNumber, firstName, lastName, trackingReference) => {
  const response = await kuda({
    serviceType: 'CREATE_VIRTUAL_ACCOUNT',
    requestRef: Number, // like Math.floor(Math.random() * 1000000000000 + 1)
    data: { email, phoneNumber, firstName, lastName, trackingReference }
  })
}

Refer to documentation for respective data types for each fields in the payload
